How we pick software
One pick per job
You don’t need five recording apps. Each section names the one we would choose, so you can stop comparing.
Priced for your size
We favor tools with a fair price for a small or growing show, not plans built for networks and studios.
You keep your files
Every pick lets you export your audio, data and subscribers if you ever leave.
Made for spoken audio
Tools designed around voices and conversations, not music production or general video.
Hosting
Where your show lives and how it reaches every app.
Recording
Capture clean audio and video, in the room or remotely.
Websites
A home for your show that you control.
Planning and workflow
Keep guests, episodes and deadlines in one place.
